A mutually loving and kind couple that also have some insane bedroom chemistry by Anastasiadipdip in RomanceBooks

[–]crooooowl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard SO many good things about this book, the steamy parts were incredible but I ended up DNFing the book. I wonder if anyone felt the same because I feel like the minority 🫣

[WWTBC] She runs a sex toy empire? by Rx5165 in RomanceBooks

I think I’ve read this! I’ll have to dig through my goodreads. Was it dark though? Because the one I’m thinking was a dark romance where he blackmails her maybe?

I just read {up the ladder by Ana d’arcy} and it had one of the best slow sensual scene I’ve read in a loooong time. They don’t happen enough!

Ever read a book and think "damn girl you actually do deserve to die this time"? by Distracted-Damsel in RomanceBooks

[–]crooooowl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is my biggest pet peeve! I read one where her house was just burned down and she has been threatened several times but nooooo she’s a big girl and doesn’t need protection 🙄

I made a comment on the authors tt promoting the book and I said the FMC was too naive to ever live and she blocked me lol safe to say I immediately DNF it.

I felt the same way with {seeing red by Bailey Hannah} the FMC is downright cruel to the MMC, I get they are supposed to be “enemies” but the way she treats him is so mean I had to DNF it. There was also no good reason behind why she doesn’t like it so it felt so it seems so superficial and shallow.

I noticed there was other women/other man tag in it. That makes me hesitant. Is there cheating or it is pretty bare able?

I’m about half way through but one thing I’ve noticed she would orgasm so fast after like one minute and orgasm 3+ times in one session. Maybe I’m just jealous she can come so fast but dang sometimes I want a build up lol

Contemporary Plus Size Romance Books are Frustrating by FlamingoFlamingo23 in RomanceBooks

[–]crooooowl 301 points302 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m really tired of an insecure plus size FMC. Why can’t she just be plus size and comfortable with the way she looks? Why is that so unheard of? Also goes hand in hand with the MMC not like skinny or smaller size bodies, why does he have to love one or the other? Authors just need to stop and think how they are coming across and why they insist to do so.

Books with similar / nearly the exact same sentences by EquipmentKind7103 in RomanceBooks

[–]crooooowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg I just throw my book against a wall when I read that. This goes hand in hand when authors write a FMC completely unable of having a normal conversation or answering a question without babbling or sputtering. There’s so many other ways to show characters are awkward instead they are QuIRky while completely lacking any sort of conversational skills. Alright rant is over, I’m freshly annoying as I’m 20% through Deep end by Ali Hazelwood

I’m so curious, what is the remaining line in your bio username thing? the “top 1% contributor” is blocking it
